Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to vehicles, and more particularly to a vehicle warning system and method.
- Drivers of automotive vehicles are warned of travel conditions such as traffic jams and icy roads by a number of known methods.
- a driver calls a local radio station on a car cell phone to report a traffic jam or a patch of ice at a particular roadway location.
- the local radio station then broadcasts this traffic news to all drivers having car radios tuned in to that station so that all such drivers are warned ahead of time of the impending traffic jam or icy patch.
- a radio reporter in an airborne traffic helicopter sees a traffic jam and reports this traffic news on air over a local radio station broadcast.
- observed traffic jams and icy roads will be reported to a service, such as the OnStar Virtual Advisor service which uses an automobile's Global Positioning System to determine an automobile's location.
- a subscribing driver will voice activate the service over a wireless communications system which will respond with real-time reports on traffic and road conditions tailored to the particular location of the automobile of the subscribing driver.
- the automobile of a subscriber automatically transmits a vehicle rollover condition to the service which will summon help to the automobile's location.

- Step e) includes communicating the determined first location and the identified travel condition problem to the second vehicle 24 only when the determined travel path is headed toward the identified location.
- the first vehicle 18 is a first automotive vehicle and the second vehicle 24 is a second automotive vehicle.
- vehicle travel paths are determinable by a computer through GPS inputs, as is within the level of skill of the artisan.
- the intent of the system is to use information from a low traction event (ABS event, TCS event, VSE event, etc.) in conjunction with information from any other in-vehicle sensors (for example, but not limited to acceleration/deceleration, yaw-rate, temperatures, etc.) or other algorithm data, Global Positioning System technology (GPS), and inter-vehicle communications (OnStar or other type of communication) to warn drivers of a possible low traction situation on the road ahead.
- a driver comes to an icy intersection and hits the brakes.
- the vehicle enters ABS to try to stop the driver.
- This data along with data such as deceleration levels from the control algorithm at the time of the stop and outside temperature or other useful information, would be processed by the computer to make an estimate of what surface the driver was on. In this case, the car would probably estimate ice.
- the vehicle position and direction on the planet would be noted using GPS.
- the information gathered from this system could then be sent to other cars, via OnStar or other form of inter-vehicle communication, such as satellites, to warn them about the conditions at that site.
- the signal could also be sent to automated road signs, road maintenance crews, radio stations, or other information system to inform people of the situation.
- the system would not only work for ABS, but also for TCS and VSE events.
- Several types of information are used to classify the low-traction condition so that people testing their ABS system, etc. won't set the system off.
- deceleration was used in conjunction with the ABS data to determine that there was a slippery condition. If someone was just slamming on brakes to test their ABS system, high deceleration levels would indicate that there was enough available traction and not inform other vehicles.
- the warning that is sent to other vehicles could stay valid for a fixed amount of time after the event happens, or it could stay in effect as long as certain variables exist. For example, as long as the temperature stays below freezing, the signal could warn of ice at the intersection mentioned above, or it could turn off when say five cars don't have a low traction event at that point.
- the system is used to inform drivers of possible traffic jams by noting the speeds of several other vehicles equipped with the system in the same area. Several vehicles with a speed slower than normal in the same area would indicate a traffic jam.
- a traffic jam In one example to detect a traffic jam, vehicle speed is monitored as well as the number and/or length of time the brakes are applied. When criteria are satisfied, the system could send out a traffic jam flag. For example, one criteria is for the vehicle to be below 10 mph for 1 ⁇ 2 mile (3 minutes.) and during this time the brake has been applied 15 times or for a total of 1 minute. If several cars in the same area satisfy this criteria, a traffic jam warning is sent to other drivers. One criteria for turning off the warning is when a predetermined number of equipped vehicles pass the same spot without a traffic jam event.
- Surface estimation can be made by using either an accelerometer or by calculating acceleration from the reference velocities that are calculated in ABS and TCS. By knowing the vehicle acceleration and the fact that the vehicle has lost traction, the system can estimate what surface it is on by using tables, as is known to the artisan.
- VSE uses a lateral accelerometer at the time the vehicle loses traction and a look up table to estimate the road surface. Using the vehicle speed and the amount of time it took the vehicle to accelerate, stop, or recover could give an estimation of how large the affected area is. Vehicle speed is currently calculated during TCS and ABS events.
- first method and the first, second and third expressions of a first embodiment of the invention are derived from one or more of the first method and the first, second and third expressions of a first embodiment of the invention.
- an onboard detector such as a vehicle sensor and a computer
- a communicator to transmit (such as to another vehicle headed toward the particular location) such travel condition problem
- a roadway or traffic travel condition problem can be quickly reported without requiring human observation or action.
- only vehicles determined to be headed toward the particular location are alerted of the travel condition problem which reduces unwanted information overload to those vehicles which are not headed toward the particular location.
